A Return to Mail Art

Posted on May 26, 2013 at 10:54pm 3 Comments

After a long period of inactivity and wondering whether I'll ever get anything started again, today I made some mail art. I feel good. And that's saying something!



The last year has been pretty traumatic; a period of time when lots of things happened and forced dramatic changes to me and my family, all in fairly close succession, without any time for reflection or adjustment or acceptance. Some of these things created a chain reaction too, where several smaller issues escalated and… Continue

Hello Chris — nice to find someone I know here. Just decided to take the plunge & register, do you find this group interesting and/or useful?

Hello Christopher,

 
I'm interested in exchanging some mail art with you, and see from the IUOMA artistamp group site and other sites that your interests extend to artistamps and book arts, overlapping with mine. I have been creating artistamps and mail art since the year 2000; book and pamphlet binding is a much more recent interest, say in the past five years, but I'm hooked. Just finished mailing a four-signature 60-page pamphlet to 59 participants of a mail art call with the theme "Keep the (U.S.) Post Office Public." (Whew, a month's worth of labor but fun...)
 
My address until February 1st:
 
Cascadia Artpost
4609 Briggs Drive SE, #304
Olympia, WA 98501-5515
 
We are in the process of purchasing a house (plenty of room for a studio!), and so I will be mailing out particulars closer to the time of relocation.
 
Looking forward to hearing from you,
 
Jack @ Cascadia Artpost
